Detailed Solution

For given reaction,

$\begin{array}{l} {Ni}^{2 +} + 4 {NH}_{3} \Leftrightarrow {[Ni {({NH}_{3})}_{4}]}^{2 +} \\ K = \frac{{[Ni {({NH}_{3})}_{4}]}^{2 +}}{[{Ni}^{2 +} {[{NH}_{3}]}^{4}]} \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{l} \frac{[{Ni}^{2 +}]}{[{Ni}^{2 +}] + {[Ni {(N_{3})}_{4}]}^{2 +}} = 1 .6 \times 10^{- 6} \\ K = \frac{10^{6}}{1 .6 \times (0 .5)^{4}} \\ K = 10^{7} \end{array}$
